The Colony of Deo Gracias is a mammoth, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 7.244 billion Deo Graciasians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 28.2%.

The Deo Graciasian economy, worth 340 trillion aurums a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 47,002 aurums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, organ donation is compulsory, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Deo Gracias's national animal is the bovina, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Deo Gracias is ranked 95,824^th in the world and 1^st in Diego Garcia for Fattest Citizens, with 11.44 Obesity Rate.
